If you are a United States citizen planning a trip to Mexico, it is a good idea to be informed about the embassy and consulate locations, and what services they can provide to you. You should keep on hand the contact information for the consulate closest to your vacation destination in case you experience some kind of emergency in Mexico, be it losing your passport or becoming a victim of crime, or if you're involved in any type of accident.

Embassy and consulate staff can provide you with important information in case you run into some type of trouble in Mexico, and can assist you with replacing lost travel documents as well as some other services.

It is a good idea to register your trip before you go. If you are registered, the embassy can send you the latest information that affects U.S citizens in the area and get in touch with you in the case of natural disaster or some other type of emergency. The United States embassy in Mexico is located in the Colonia Cuauhtemoc in Mexico City, but there are several consulates throughout the country. Here is the contact information for the embassy and consulates, in case you should need to contact them during your visit.
